A software update is now available that introduces new features and adjustments to enhance the overall experience. Please start the game while your Nintendo Switch console is connected to the internet to update the software. The software version after this update will be v3.2.0.

During replay playback, ZR will no longer switch between targets. The X button instead is used for all camera angle switching.

During replay playback, + - buttons no longer toggle HP gauge display, and instead now bring up the menu.

Fixed issue where, at certain timings, follow up attacks after wind attacks would not land.

Fixed issue where, after suffering an ice attack, players on a snake board could repeatedly jump and the snake board would continuously accelerate.

Fixed issue where, when battle rules are set to 1-punch KO, under certain conditions fighters would become unable to move.
